The Direction of Self
G Center / Self · Individual Circuit Circuit
In short
What does Gate 2 mean in Human Design?
Gate 2 is the receptacle of direction in the G Center. It does not push, it draws: it embodies the sense of orientation that magnetizes drivers (Gate 14) toward needed fuel. It is an intuitive knowing of the 'right path.'
The keeper of direction and orientation, who knows where to go without knowing how to explain it.
Energy Center
G Center / Self
Circuit
Individual Circuit
Mutative, unique and non-conformist energy : transforms consciousness through example.
The Shadow: "Dislocation", is the conditioned pattern where this energy contracts and resists. Recognizing it without judgment is the first step of transformation.
The Gift: "Orientation", emerges when the Shadow is embraced. The same energy, freed, becomes a natural talent in service of self and others.
The Siddhi: "Unity", is the highest frequency, the transcendent essence of this gate once the Gift is fully lived.
Affirmation
"I know my direction from within; I need not justify it to follow it."
